Sony & Marvel debut the first teaser trailer for Venom

It’s not a full trailer, but the first glimpse at Venom gives us an idea of what may be coming later this year.

Venom, starring Tom Hardy, will take place in the “Spider-man movie universe,” though it may not necessarily be connected to the recent Spider-man Homecoming film or other Marvel Cinematic Universe films. Hardy plays Eddie Brock, long time Spider villain, as he becomes the spider-ish creature, and, while we don’t see Venom in costume in the trailer, we do see Hardy seemingly begin to go through the transformation process.

Teaser trailers are usually precursors to a full actual trailer, though when that could arrive is probably up in the air. With Deadpool 2 and Infinity War releasing in May, it’s a safe bet that the first time we see the character in costume and moving in an actual trailer could happen around then.

Venom arrives in theaters in October from Sony & Columbia.
